Gates Cambridge Scholarship is delighted to invite you to apply to its opportunity. Gates Cambridge will offer 80 full-cost scholarships to outstanding applicants from countries outside the UK to pursue a full-time postgraduate degree in any subject available at the University of Cambridge for 2020. Approximately two-thirds of these awards will be offered to PhD students, with approximately 25 awards available in the US round and 55 available in the International round.

Eligibility:

  • You should apply to pursue one of the following full-time courses of study at the University of Cambridge: PhD, MSc/MLitt, One-year postgraduate course.
  • You must show evidence of academic excellence (through your transcripts, references, experience and the potential to succeed on the chosen course).
  • You should be able to make a strong case for a particular postgraduate degree at Cambridge. 
  • PhD applicants (and most research MPhil applicants) will need to make contact with a potential supervisor with whom they will develop a research project, a summary of which is part of the application.
